No effect.

I then commented out the Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes" line.  I logged out
and back in with no effect.

I ran system-config-mouse and selected the 2 button mouse again.  I
rebooted, but still the middle button works (as does the wheel).

I commented out the Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" line and rebooted, and
finally had a 2 button mouse.  Unfortunately, the buttons were left and
middle.  No right button.

I've since put everything back and I'm back where I started.
